2019-2020 ISACA Journal article reviewer

Description:

The ISACA Journal is an electronic and print publication distributed to all ISACA Members six times per year and one of our highest rated member benefits providing timely content related to ISACA’s professional community. All ISACA Journal feature articles are peer reviewed. The Journal article review team is responsible for ensuring that all submissions adhere to the high standards of the Journal and provide members with high-quality practical content and/or thought leadership. Reviewers will have 1-2 weeks to provide feedback on how authors could improve their article to better provide value to Journal readers. The review team is not responsible for editing for style and grammar; rather, reviews should focus on the content, if it is accurate and if it provides value to readers. All reviews are double blind, i.e., reviewers do not know whose article they are reviewing, and authors do not know who reviewed their article.
